I don't understand why they created the freeze synergy for Shaman in Frozen Throne but never added any new cards to support it in later expansions. Did they really think that what is already available is enough? Or did they just give up on it entirely? Wtf are they thinking?! Such a waste...

This card still confounds me. I'm not going to say that it's beyond terrible, but when you compare it to something like Lyra the Sunshard, it's not even in the same league.

Lyra costs less so you have more mana to work with to trigger the effect, it has more health so it's harder to kill, and it doesn't rely exclusively on freeze effects to trigger the ability. Sure, the priest spells are random, but I think we've all seen how powerful they still manage to be. Add that all on to the fact that freeze Shaman isn't even competitive and you're looking at a card that feels bad even when it works.

It honestly feels like Blizzard designed this card when Shaman was still busted good and they didn't want to give the class too many cards that might be potentially broken. You can pretty much say that about all the shaman cards in Frozen Throne, with the exception of maybe the death knight.
